It was revealed today at the Free Open-Source Developers' European Meeting (FOSDEM) that Intel through their Open-Source Technology Center is currently over two dozen full-time graphics driver developers. They're also looking to hiring more developers...

Dammit Intel, can you please make some hardware capable of driving the 2560x1600 resolution of my 30" Dell LCD already!?! I have the pre-display-port model, and none of your chipsets thus far will drive that resolution over DVI

Clearly not qualified to produce much work, relative to the talent at AMD.

Hey, there's a whole Internet out there you can troll! No need to do it on Phoronix.

Yeah, lack of dual-link DVI is a bit unfortunate for older gen, but basically once DP was released there's no point for them to waste die space (which is pretty important on a CPU package) on dual-link DVI, since if people need to deliver hi-res output to old screens they can do it using an active DP->DVI adapter...
